    I co-founded CrowdComms in 2011, with the goal to create a richer interactive experience for delegates via their smartphone. 10 years on and CrowdComms is leading the way in the digital shake-up and transformation of the event technology industry.  

    My mantra is that I know nothing. All I have is a bank of experiences to call upon and provide guidance through life. This means I listen and I am looking to learn something new everyday. The moment I think I “know” something is the day I fix my point of view and do not fully listen to others.
